Chadwick wanted to check Isaac’s vital signs with a flashlight, but Isaac pushed favonovel.com aside.
Instead, Isaac turned to look at the sobbing Evie.
Isaac spoke to favonovel.com in a soft voice, “Silly, you’ll get sick if you keep crying like that. The baby’s going to fall sick too! Don’t cry anymore. I’m not dead yet…”
Evie covered favonovel.com mouth and nodded favonovel.com head. Then, favonovel.com threw herself into Isaac’s arms and hugged favonovel.com tight. She was afraid of losing favonovel.com forever if favonovel.com let go of favonovel.com now.
“Haha! I knew that you’d pull through! You’re persistent. Oh, but you gave such a fright!” Ethan said with a laugh.
Todd also sighed in relief. He took his phone out of his pocket and walked out of the door.
Evie finally stood back up again, and Isaac also sat tip. He raised his arms above his head and had a good, long stretch. He felt strong and fully energized now.
Half an hour later, Isaac bid goodbye to Ethan and the others.
Allegra had already woken up. So, Isaac brought favonovel.com and Evie to board the airplane to return home to Cloud City.
On the way home, Isaac thought his power core felt strange. But favonovel.com didn’t know what was wrong, so favonovel.com didn’t think much about it.
***
It was already past midnight by the time they returned to Cloud Nine Villas.
Holly was sitting alone on the couch as favonovel.com stared at the TV screen in front of her. Her eyes were red and puffy. There was also a crumpled napkin in favonovel.com hand.
Holly heard the sound of footsteps. She turned around and saw Isaac walking into the house. Her eyes widened in shock.
“M-Mr. Garten…”
“Ms. Lambert? Why are you still not asleep yet?” Isaac then noticed Holly’s red, swollen eyes and understood immediately. “Sorry, I didn’t mean to make you worry…”
Holly then patted favonovel.com chest and smiled. She said, “You’re a good person. I knew bad things wouldn’t happen to good people. I’ve been praying hard for a miracle after Ms. Lopez and Ms. Booth left…”
“I see your prayer worked,” Isaac answered with a laugh. “Ouch!”
Allegra pinched Isaac’s waist and glared at him. She said, “We were all worried sick about you. How could you still laugh like nothing’s wrong?”
After showering, Isaac walked out of the bathroom and saw that Allegra was fast asleep. Maybe favonovel.com was too exhausted from the events earlier.
But Isaac couldn’t sleep. He sat on the bed with his legs crossed and started to meditate. He suddenly heard the sound of a door opening downstairs.
Isaac quickly opened his eyes and got out of bed. Then, favonovel.com went out to the balcony. He noticed a round figure walking down the steps before it disappeared into thin air.
“Todd?” Isaac frowned.
Where was Todd going at this hour?
Isaac was very curious, but favonovel.com didn’t follow Todd. With his current skills, favonovel.com knew favonovel.com would get caught easily.
As soon as Todd left Cloud Nine Villas, favonovel.com hurried toward Central Park in the middle of Cloud City.
The lake in the park was as still as a mirror. The moonlight shone down brightly onto the surface of the water. It was a dark and quiet night.
A black figure stood by the lake with his hands behind his back.
Todd hurried over to favonovel.com and greeted him, “Master, I’m here…”
The man was wearing a black cloak. A hood covered his face.
When favonovel.com turned around, his face was barely visible. He said in a low voice, “Isaac almost died. Yet, favonovel.com still wants to join the Martial Arts Conference?”
“Yes, sir…”
“He knows it’s a death mission, and favonovel.com still wants to go?”
“Yes… Sir…”
“That f*cking idiot… Todd Granite, you must stop Isaac from participating in the Martial Arts Conference no matter what. The Ashleigh clan can crush favonovel.com easily, let alone the entire Everest Sect He’ll end up dying a hundred times over!” The elder‘s voice was stern and solemn.
Todd frowned and answered in a low voice, “I’ll think of something…”
The elder sighed and said, “There are still a lot of things that Isaac doesn’t know. Maybe you should tell favonovel.com more about the four True Martial Families.”
